Whatever You Can Know.
Welcome to Whatever You Can Know Podcast with Tanya Savva. A place where spirituality meets special needs parenting, consciousness meets embodiment, trauma meets healing and a whole bunch of extra stuff to inspire curiosity about whatever you can know.
My insatiable interest in physiology, biology and science started with cadavers in a wet lab in the year 2000 as a university student. When my life took an unexpected turn in 2009 and I birthed a daughter with a disability, my interest moved from the physical to the metaphysical, emotional and spiritual. Becoming a special needs mum unravelled me to my core. It wasn’t part of my life’s plan but hindsight comes with many gifts and I wouldn’t want my life to be any other way.
I’ve since been many things in the health, wellbeing and healing space for over 20 years as a therapist, creative and healer. I’ve studied and shape-shifted from one thing to another, time and time again, following my gut, my inner voice and intuition. Despite the ways in which I’ve changed, throughout my conscious evolution, I have consistently been a special needs mother, a student, a writer and deeply curious.
I’ve supported many people to ignite radical self responsibility, awaken awareness, release unconscious limitations and reconnect with purpose and presence. Just as my daughter did for me.
As life thrusts its unexpectedness against me, I choose to loosen my grip on the illusion of control, and allow myself to be swept up in the magic of life’s unfolding.
So here we are, you and me, on a podcast, where I share an amalgamation of what is real, what is true, what is current and what I know. This is not a self help space. But you may see yourself in my muse, and I hope that awakens an insatiable interest in you, too.
Welcome to Whatever You Can Know — your home for what’s real, right now.

EP 01 | Nice to meet you! How did I get here?
In this episode I offer a little intro and insight to me, your host Tanya Savva, giving a little snap shot of my life trajectory and career. I introduce the fact that I am a special needs mum, how following my intuition has lead me to life changing and affirming decisions, and the influence of numerology on making decisions like starting a podcast and a substack platform. I also share the poem that inspired the title of my podcast
Forget about enlightenment by John Welwood
Sit down wherever you are
And listen to the wind singing in your veins.
Feel the love, the longing, the fear in your bones.
Open your heart to who you are, right now,
Not who you would like to be,
Not the saint you are striving to become,
But the being right here before you, inside you, around you.
All of you is holy.
You are already more and less
Than whatever you can know.
Breathe out,
Touch in,
Let go.
